Angel Of Harlem Lyrics - X Factor (uk)

It was a cold and wet December day 

When we touched the ground at JFK 

Snow was melting on the ground 

On BLS I heard the sound of an angel 

New York like a Christmas tree 

Tonight this city belongs to me 

Angel 

Soul love 

This love won't let me go 

So long 

Angel of Harlem 

Birdland on fifty-three 

The street sounds like a symphony 

We got John Coltrane and 'A Love Supreme' 

Miles, and she's got to be an angel 

Lady Day got diamond eyes 

She sees the truth behind the lies 

Angel 

Soul love 

This love won't let me go 

So long 

Angel of Harlem 

Angel of Harlem, yeah 

She says it's heart 

Heart and soul 

Yeah, yeah, yeah 

Yeah, yeah, yeah, right now 

Blue light on the avenue 

God knows they got to you 

An empty glass, the lady sings 

Eyes swollen like a bee sting 

Blinded you lost your way 

Through the side streets and the alleyway 

Like a star exploding in the night 

Falling to the city in broad daylight 

An angel in Devil's shoes 

Salvation in the blues 

You never looked like an angel 

Yeah, yeah, Angel of Harlem 

Angel 

Angel of Harlem 

Angel 

Angel of Harlem 

Angel 

Angel of Harlem 

Angel 

Angel of Harlem 

All right, that's all right, that's all right
